Mayor George Heartwell
You've certainly got that right Georgie, and your solution to the problem is to make racial and gender discrimination an official state policy. Somewhere, Dr. King is turning in his grave.
So explain to me dear mayor how affirmative action (preferential hiring for racial minorities / quotas) is not discrimination.
Racial preference is a viable tool to defeat racism, who knew? I wonder if I can get the Dandelions out of my lawn by planting Dandelions.
Apparently it didn’t burden Asians, but oops, I forget, they perform too well to be labeled a minority!

Grand Rapids Mayor George Heartwell is such a flaming liberal you could roast marshmallows off him. How I WISH someone would come forward to run against him; he is a relatively young man and, as far as I know, GR has no term limits; thus, he could be mayor of this city for a LONG, LONG time....

The 14th Amendment needed a termination date.
Sounds Orwellian.
This is the stupidest decision I have ever seen.
“We need racism, because not being racist damages someone.”
OK - we should all take them at their word. Racism is now legal and expected.
Who wants to be the forst business in Michigan to discriminate based on skin color - maybe a restaurant - “different prices for blacks and whites”.
After all - it is the law for the state.
Yet anther reason why the 14th amendment is one of the most carelessly written and reckless of all amendment to the Federal Constitution and should be either repealed or ignored(given the way it was “Ratified” under the gun.)
Federal employees in black robes have successfully managed to make the carelessly written Amendment to serves the exact opposite propose even its equally reckless its writers intended.
